The news that they'd been set up by Helen didn't surprise James, not considering her apparent pathological need to play games with people's lives. He'd started to enquire for more details when he found himself knocked down, the reek of rotting meat in his nostrils. Sharp claws dug into his back before he heard a heavy thud.
James gasped as hands pressed against his back and he heard Jon cry out, “Helen!”
Helen - it must be her tending to his wounds - spoke calmly. “Sit down before you fall down, Jon. It's just a few scratches, he'll be fine. Sit, Jon!”
